There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Title: Algorithms for Geometric Similarity
Abstract:
A basic problem in classifying, or searching for similar objects in, a large set of geometric objects is computing similarity between two objects. This has led to extensive work on computing geometric similarity between two objects. This talk discusses some old and some new geometric algorithms for computing similarity between two point sets, with an emphasis on transportation and Frechet distance. The talk will also touch upon a few open problems in this area.
